AIMING FOR ROCK ISLAND.
Another New Road Pushing this
Way.
Articles OF Incorporation for the
quincy 4 Rock Island Road Filed
Objects and Prospects.

Articles of incorporation were filed
last night with Circuit Clerk Bowman
for the Quincy & Rock Island Railroad
Company" According to the articles
it is proposed to construct the said rail-
road from Quincy northerly through the
counties of Adams, Hancock, Hender-
son, Mercer and Rock Island to point
at or near the city of Rock Island.
The principal Office is to be established
and maintained in Quincy and the time
of commencement of the corporation to
be the first day of September. and the
duration fifty years The capital stock
is placed at 50 600, 900 in twenty thous-
and shares of 800 each.
The incorporators are Chas. A. Nc
Laughlan. Galesburg, Ill Sam. A Gray.
Hamilton, Iii ; Chas. r. Arnold Hamil-
ton. Ill.,; Chas. Ii. Deere, Moline; Morris
Rosentield. Rock Island; Geo. W. Kret-
Finger, Chicago; JAS. W, Bishop, Quincy
Jas F. Crawford, Warsaw; William
Hill, Warsaw
The first board of directors are Chas.
A Mclaughlin. Sam S. Gray, Chas. X.
Arnold, Chas. H. Deere, Morris Rosen :
field. Geo W. Kretzinger, JAS NJ Bish-
OPP, Jas F. Crawford and VIM Hill.
From appearances the Incorporation
may be construed as the consummation
OF plans contemplated for some tmet-he
building of line to be operated by the
C.. B & @ from Quincy to Rock Island,
thus completing the Burlington's direct
river line from st Louis to St Paul, and
passing through territory which is much
IN need of railroad, and including New
Boston, Andalusia. and other towns down
the river and thereby greatly benefitting
Rock Island, as muck of the trade
throughout the lower end of Rock Island
us well as Mercer county which now goes
to Muscatine. will be brought to this city
Other solutions of the intention of the
new road are made, one being that it is
not the G.. B. & B. inasmuch as that line
only needs to build to New Boston tc
complete the chain to Quincy. Another
version Is that it is The new American
Central line, and another that il is the out.
growth of a disagreement as to tarif
rates. Certainly it is not an independent
line rs there woHld be nothing to sustain
one between here and Quincy alone.

"a New System of Universal Natural

distinguished astronomer and observer of

author. The book is composed of five
chapters, entitled Introduction, AS,

the most interesting of the papers pres

scientific journal issued periodically.
The book, while containing much of
interest and value TO the scientific world,
including us it does Il sort of meteoro-
logical history and the principal planes
tary movements of the past, present and
future, is also creditable work, artist
cally speaking. 1t is neatly bound in
cloth and is handsomely illustrated with
steel plates, which aid much in compre.

THE CANINE PERPLEXITY.
Caused the City---Sehnert's Cendi-
tion---An AIderman's Dog.

The Trouble the Shooting Of Dogs has
Caused the City---sehnert's Cendi-
tion---An AIderman's Dog.
The probabilities are that before the
city gets through with the reckless dog
shooting business, the municipal corpor-
ton will find that it has stirred up more
of nuisance than all the dogs in town
would have been. 1t would seem that
the police have dispatched some of the
most valued dogs in town, while some OF
the ours and nongrels which are of no
value to their owner or anybody else are
permitted TO roam about unmolested.
A new feature of the shameful arrest of
Louis Sehnert by Officers Wichman and
Long the other day, was exposed this
morning, when it was ascertained that the
patrol wagon in which he was thrown
half clothed and scarcely able to sustain
his own weight, contained number of
dead dogs, which the officers had been
practicing their skill on at so much head.
This adds all the more to the horror of
the case and demands that the matter be
thoroughly investigated and the officers
properly punished if they deserve it.
DIR. Gait stated this morning that Sehnert
was still a very sick man; that his treat
meut at the hands of the officers had
caused relapse, as when dragged to the
station it was his first day out of bed
after three weeks seige with typhoid
fever
An alderman's dog bit colored wom-
on Third avenue last evening, and now
| none of her relatives will rest until that
dogs life is ended. His check, which
spared him from the deadly aim of the
police, will not save him from the darby
wrath. The colored people have a
peculiar and ignorant superstition that if
| dog bites person, and no matter how
harmless the wound at the time, if the
dog should ever 60 mad in the future, the
person bitten will have hydrophobia,
too. Hence the city fathers dog must
| die.

A Model Innovation.

One of the most novel, and at the
same time pleasing, innovations willssbe
introduced into, the auction sale of the
lots near the main entrance to the fair
grounds this morning. The proposed
project is to make munifcent gifts to
purchasers of property, that will amount
i'll the aggregate to hundreds of dollars.
These gifts are not made to sell the
property, for it is so choice that it is
Iabnndantly able to stand on it's own
merits. 1t is simple courtesy that lib
Ieral prOprletOrS have determined to
how the patrons of the sale. AS it oc-
ours, after the sale, it isFentireiyt dis
ttinct and separate, being nothing more
nor less than what is proposed-a free
gift. The property itself is the very
finest for residence purposes in the
Midway District, and in itself is worthy
of the most spirited competition. but the
new idea will make it doubly desirable.
ASpecial train will leave the Northern
Pacific depot, corner of East Fourth
street and Broadway, at 9:15 this morn
ing, returning Immediately after the
sale is concluded. 1t may not be
out of place here to say that this addi-
ton, known as Lake. Park, is topo-
graphically one of the finest spots for
fine residences in the Northwest. 1t
has everything i'll its favor, being
near Como Park, upon which the park
commissioners will eXpend this season
about S25, 1000 Immediately north of Ham
line, where one of the finest educational
institutions in the country is located,
surrounded by fine residences and
grounds that show the taste of the oc-
cupants, nice, cool, shady streets all
graded and beautifully laid out, immedi-
ately adjoining state fair grounds, lately
given to the state and upon which hun
dredS of thousands of dollars have been
expended to make it what it now is, one
of the finest fair grounds in the United
States. Within three blocks the North
ern Pacific Railway company has eX-
pended nearly two millions of dollars in
improvements, and many other improve
ments are contemplated in the immedi-
ate neighborhood which will greatly en-
nance values in this portion of the city.
Tickets to and from the grounds will be
furnished free at the Northern Pacific
depot before the train leaves. The terms
of sale will be made very easy, and an
nOunced on the grounds at the time OF
sale. Investors, home builders and
spectators will find this sale of immense
benefit to them and they cannot afford
to remain AWAY
